Answer:

f = 1.18 x 10¹¹ Hz

Explanation:

The equation used to find frequency is:

f = c / w

In this form, "f" represents the frequency (Hz), "c" represents the speed of light (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s), and "w" represents the wavelength (m).

Since you have been given the value of the constant (c) and wavelength, you can substitute these values into the equation to find frequency.

f = c / w <---- Formula

f = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / w <---- Plug 3.0 x 10⁸ in "c"

f = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (2.55 x 10⁻³ m) <---- Plug 2.55 x 10⁻³ in "w"

f = 1.18 x 10¹¹ Hz <---- Divide

You have given a power supply, copper wire, and an iron nail. What should you do to decrease the strength of the electro magnet?

Shkiper50 [21]

If you wrap some of the wire around the nail in one direction and some of the wire in the other direction, the magnetic fields from the different sections fight each other and cancel out, reducing the strength of your magnet.

A 2.00 kg block on a horizontal floor is attached to a horizontal spring that is initially compressed 0.0300 m . The spring has

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

v = 0.41 m/s

Explanation:

In this case, the change in the mechanical energy, is equal to the work done by the fricition force on the block.
At any point, the total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy plus the elastic potential energy.
So, we can write the following general equation, taking the initial and final values of the energies:

$\Delta K + \Delta U = W_{ffr} (1)$

Since the block and spring start at rest, the change in the kinetic energy is just the final kinetic energy value, Kf.
⇒ Kf = 1/2*m*vf² (2)
The change in the potential energy, can be written as follows:

$\Delta U = U_{f} - U_{o} = \frac{1}{2} * k * (x_{f} ^{2} - x_{0} ^{2} ) (3)$

where k = force constant = 815 N/m

xf = final displacement of the block = 0.01 m (taking as x=0 the position

for the spring at equilibrium)

x₀ = initial displacement of the block = 0.03 m

Regarding the work done by the force of friction, it can be written as follows:

$W_{ffr} = - \mu_{k}* F_{n} * \Delta x (4)$

where μk = coefficient of kinettic friction, Fn = normal force, and Δx =

horizontal displacement.

Since the surface is horizontal, and no acceleration is present in the vertical direction, the normal force must be equal and opposite to the force due to gravity, Fg:
Fn = Fg= m*g (5)
Replacing (5) in (4), and (3) and (4) in (1), and rearranging, we get:

$\frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = W_{ffr} - \Delta U = W_{ffr} - (U_{f} -U_{o}) (6)$

$\frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = (- \mu_{k}* m*g* \Delta x) -\frac{1}{2} * k * (x_{f} ^{2} - x_{0} ^{2} ) (7)$

Replacing by the values of m, k, g, xf and x₀, in (7) and solving for v, we finally get:

$\frac{1}{2} * 2.00 kg* v^{2} = (-0.4*2.00 kg*9.8m/s2*0.02m) +( (\frac{1}{2} *815 N/m)* (0.03m)^{2} - (0.01m)^{2}) = -0.1568 J + 0.326 J (8)$

$v =\sqrt{(0.326-0.1568} = 0.41 m/s (9)$

if you put a pencil in a cup of water, it looks as if it is broken and larger in the water. This is because light waves

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

When light enters from air to water i.e. it is moving from rarer to denser medium, it changes its original path as there is a change of speed of light and deflects itself towards the normal. This is known as the refraction of light and this is why a pencil in a cup of water looks as if it is broken and larger.

Car A has a mass of 1,200 kg and is traveling at a rate of 22 km/hr. It collides with car B. Car B has a mass of 1,900 kg and is

anastassius [24]

The car A has a mass of 1200 kg.

The car B has the mass of 1900 kg.

It is given that velocity of car A is given as 22 Km/hr

The car B has the velocity of 25 Km/hr.

Let the mass of two bodies are denoted as $m_{1} \ and\ m_{2}$

Let the velocity of cars A and B are denoted as $v_{1} \ and\ v_{2}$

The momentum before collision is-

$p_{i} =m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2} v_{2}$

[Here p stand for momentum.]

We are asked to calculate the final momentum of the system after collision.

The answer of the question is based law of conservation of linear momentum.

As per law of conservation of linear momentum the sum total linear momentum for an isolated system is always constant.Hence irrespective of the type of collision[elastic and inelastic],the momentum of the system is always constant which is a universal truth.

Let after the collision the velocity of A and B are $v'_{1} \ and\ v'_{2}$
